Trump just didn’t magically appear out of a different dimension, and opportunists like him were always there. What changed was that the material conditions declined to a point where large swaths of the public lost faith in mainstream politics. They never recovered from the 2008 crisis when Obama bailed out the banks and left the public hanging. That set up the stage for the first Trump victory where he campaigned on draining the swamp. Then they were hit by the pandemic, and the proxy war in Ukraine under Biden. And the anger at the collapsing standard of living, lack of jobs, housing, and healthcare started driving people over the edge. And that’s the America we see today. One ripe for a conman to tell people how he’ll magically fix everything. But make no mistake, all this is a product of liberal politics working over many decades.
Americans let one man bring them down because he fooled them into thinking he was the american dream.

Its not one man. Just look at the Epstein class. It never was about voting the right people, it was always about managing the class conflict.
